Favorite 3 Girl JAM projects

Hello everyone, Happy Monday!  I hope you had a great weekend and holiday!  

I'm here today with sad news and my favorite 3 Girl JAM projects.

Today is my last post as a 3 Girl JAM DT member...very sad.

It was a hard decision because Julie and the team are so WONDERFUL!  I have a lot on my plate for 2014 and wont be doing much blogging.  You may see me in a HOP or two but that's about it.  

This has been a AMAZING opporitity and I feel so lucky that Julie and the girls chose me.  I want to thank Julie and the girls, I've LOVED every minute of this DT.  I LOVE all the beautiful ribbons and GREAT products you have to offer.  I'm looking forward to seeing what you come out with in 2014.

Thanks so much!

Here are some of my favorite projects using 3GJ over the last 2 years. You can check out the store to see all the WONDERFUL items available. 

Sending Christmas Joy & Cheer

Hello everyone, Jovan here this lovely Monday!  I hope you had a WONDERFUL holiday weekend!  Did you eat to much or shop to much...LOL! I did! 

My card today is a non traditional Christmas card using my FAVORITE crinkled ribbon Witch's Brew from the Spooky bundle. I cut out some ornaments from Christmas Cheer cricut cart.  I added little bows to each using the FABULOUS 3 Girl JAM bow maker. The sentiment is from PTI.  I just LOVE the way this card turned out, I think I'll make a few more!  

I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!  

Do what you love

Hey everyone, Jovan here!  Happy Monday!  

The card I'm sharing with you today was super simple to make.  I used the SUPER cute new Real Life Flair buttons.  I added it to a flower I made using Tuxedo crinkle ribbon from the Celebrations bundle. 

I made the flower by punching out a circle and bunching the ribbon around in a circle.  Then added the button with glue dots. Super simple to make.  I hope you stop by the store today and pick up some Flair buttons!

Expandable Card Box

Hello all, Jovan here from Cards by Jovan.  Happy Monday to everyone!  

 I'm here today with a expandable card box.  The details about the box are on my blog.  I used the BEAUTIFUL tuxedo black crinkle ribbon from the Celebrations bundle. I think it was a great touch to the box! 

I hope you enjoyed the beautiful box I made!

Celebrate!

Hello everyone, Jovan here on this wonderful Monday!  Today I have a card to share using Holly Berry from the Winter bundle.

I used a Bugaboo image to go along with the FUN challenge we have going on HERE. I colored Scarlette present with promarkers.  The sentiment is from Create with TLC.  I added some flowers to finish off the card.

I hope you enjoyed my card today...Have a WONDERFUL week! 

Feel better soon

Hey everyone, Jovan here!  It's been a long crazy month and I'm trying so hard to get my crafting time back.  I've been a little under the weather and have not been motivated to craft.  But, I got in my craft room this weekend.  I made a super simple card...I love the way it turned out. 

For my card I used all the shades of purple crinkled ribbon.  Iris from Spring Flowers bundle, Witch brew from Spooky Bundle, and Purple Passion from Royal bundle.  I added a sentiment from PTI and some bling. 

I hope you enjoyed my card today...Have a GREAT Monday!  

Wishing you a Magical year!

Hey everyone, Jovan here from Cards by Jovan.  I'm here today to share a card with you, using some BEAUTIFUL witch's brew crinkled ribbon.  

I colored a Saturated Canary image called Bubbles with promarkers.  The sentiment I created with the computer. The bow was made using 3 Girl JAM bow maker. 

Simple birthday card using my favorite color!

I hope you enjoyed...have a GREAT day!  

You're a SUN-sational friend

Hey everyone, Jovan here today!  I hope you had a wonderful weekend!  Getting ready for back to school...I can't wait for the kids to go back, so I can enjoy the wonderful sounds of August (peace & quiet)!  It's been a long Summer.  I'm looking forward to getting back to my craft room.  

Ok, so today I have a pretty Summer card using Summer Sprinkles.  This beautiful crinkle ribbon is apart of the Season's bundle that will be available again in September...YAY!!!! I LOVE this set. 

Back to the card, I used an image called Cooling the Breeze 2, from Fine art, by Robert Jackson and colored her with Promarkers.  The sentiment is from C.C. Designs Rubber Stamps.  I added some bling to finish it off. 

 I just had to do one last Summer card.  I hope you enjoyed!

Happy Anniversary

Hello all,  Jovan here today!  I have a simple anniversary card I made for my MIL to give to you best friend.  25 years what a blessing to be together that long!  I hope to be married that long...my husband and I our going on 17 years in two weeks.  

For my card I used the beautiful Sterling from the Celebrations Bundle.  

It was a fun anniversary card to make...I hope it made them happy!  Sorry for the poor picture quality.  

So sorry for you loss

Hello everyone, Jovan here from Cards by Jovan. It feels so GOOD to be back!!!!! I have had a very busy summer!  This is my first time in a long time posting and making a card.  I feel a little rusty...LOL!  

For the card today I used Gold Crown from the Royal bundle to make a flower and Goblin Green from the Spooky bundle for the leaves.  The papers are from Lemon Flower DCWV mat stack.  I added some bling to finish the card.  

I hope you enjoyed my card today!

Hope your day is Fabulous

Hello all, Happy Monday! Jovan here with a simple yet Fabulous card to share with you.  

I used the beautiful Cherry Lipstick crinkle ribbon from the 

pink and white bundle.    

I was going through my scraps and found this fun paper from Recollections. Since the paper was so fun I thought this sentiment from PTI was prefect. 

  I made a flower out of the ribbon to match the paper. I just LOVE the way my flower came out.  

I hope everyone enjoys my card!

Every Diva Deserves her Day

Hello all, Jovan here!  Happy Monday to you!  Today starts Spring break for my kids, I'm so not looking forward to a whole week with them home.  

For my card today I'm using Tuxedo crinkle ribbon from the Celebrations bundle.  I used a SSD image called Samantha Sassy.  I colored her with promarkers and paper pieced her dress. 

I think her seating on the ribbon is the prefect touch.  

I hope you enjoyed my card today!

Happy 1st Birthday

Hello all, Jovan here from Cards by Jovan.  I have a super cute birthday card to share with you today!  This card is for a friend to give to her daughter who LOVES  Chica on sprout. 

 I got the image off the internet and a dear blog friend colored her in photoshop for me. I added a wobble to Chica for FUN!  I cut the one out with my cricut and used the birthday cuttlebug folder for embossing the background.  I used Christmas Candy ribbon and made my bow with the 3GJ bow maker.  

I hope you enjoyed my card today!  

I heart you

Hello all, Happy Monday!  Jovan here from cards by Jovan.  Are you ready for Valentine's day? I finished all my cards in time and they all sold...YAY!!!!  Today I'm showing you one of the cards I made.  

For this card I used a cuttlebug folder to emboss and cut out the heart middle.  I cut out a heart using my ciruct and added a Pink by design sentiment.  I added Holly Berry crinkled ribbon for a pop and made my bow using the FABULOUS 3 Girl JAM bow maker.  

I hope you have a great day and a wonderful Valentine's day!  

You're the One that I Want

Hello all, Jovan here today!  Happy Monday!  

I'm here today with a simple Valentine card.  The new LOVE flair buttons are so great for quick cards.  I made a rosette with my Martha Steward score board and added the button.  How easy is that?!  

I just LOVE the new flair buttons!  I hope you enjoyed my card and go check out all the flair buttons in the store.

Happy Birthday

Hello all, Jovan here from Cards by Jovan!  I'm so excited about this super cute set I made using Harvest Orange crinkled ribbon. The set was so easy to make.  I used a die from PTI and sentiments from Close to my Heart.  The butterfly is a ek success punch. I embossed the background with a cuttlebug folder.  The ribbon was the PREFECT touch and I used the bow maker for the bow.  Super easy!  Stop by the store today and check out the Harvest Bundle and Bow maker!

Merry Christmas

Hello all, Jovan here!  I have two Christmas cards to share using the beautiful Wine crinkle ribbon from the  Wine & Jewels bundle. 

My first card I cut a tree from the Noel cricut cart.  I love this tree, I added some pearls to the tree. 

My second card I made simple with a sentiment from Paper trey ink.  

I just love the rich colors on these cards and the ribbon was the prefect touch!  

Happy Holidays!  

Christmas Wishes

Hello all, Jovan here with a fun Christmas card!  My card today is using Goblin Green ribbon from the Spooky Bundle.  I just LOVE this bundle it is for any occasion!  I used this cute little girl from Simply Betty and colored her with promarkers.  I printed the sentiment out from the computer. 

I'm just getting started on my Christmas projects and I'm sure you are too. You should pick up some 3 Girl JAM ribbon to add those finishing touches to your projects!  

Thoughts and Prayers

Hello all, Jovan here from Cards by Jovan.   My DT post today is using the AWESOME New Burlap Trim.  This burlap is just GREAT, it's so thick and PREFECT!  

For my card I used an image from Whimsy Stamps and colored it with promarkers.  I used a spellbinders die for the book and Cheery Lynn die for the flourish. The sentiment is form Pink by designs. 

I just LOVE this card and the new burlap!
